I had a 2022 Ford Maverick XLT all wheel drive Alto blue. I changed the tires and put the FX 4 decals on the side.
I just received my 2023 real XLT FX4 in white with more options.
I MISS THE ALTO BLUE.
Did I make a mistake here are the pictures of the both trucks.

For obvious reasons, I prefer the Alto Blue...a $350 option...wonder why?

I just checked Ford's website it came with the oversized radiator the better cooling fan but it does not have the transmission cooler. I really don't know how much I could tow. I was under the assumption it was 4,000 lb does anyone know how much it would pull. Thanks so much
I meant, an other vehicle, possibly a truck, that would make adding a tow package unnecessary. I have an F150 with the towing goodies so ordering my Maverick with tow options was not big deal.

Since you asked... I don't care for 2 colors much. White, because it looks like someone's work truck, and the orange color because it looks like a highway dept. work truck. I'm not slamming those colors or the folks who like them. Thank God we all have different tastes and different color selections. White does have an advantage. It shows the dirt the least. A coating of dust just makes it look a little off white. By the way, my first truck was a new 1976 Ford F100 that was Wimbledon white. Base model, short bed straight 6 with 3 on the tree. MSRP was $3995.00!!!!! I loved that truck!

I would say so because I despise white vehicles, but that is me for me. It is really only your opinion that counts, it's your truck.

Both colors look great, white will be a lot easier to keep looking good. May the Force be with you.

I would much rather have a bolder color myself. If I did get a white Maverick I would definitely add a large blue double hood, roof, and tailgate stripe aswell as a blue pinstripe following just above the black lower body plastics. Remember Shelby Mavericks were a real thing in South America back in the day. and given the hoot Shelby had with the Chrysler turbos in the 80s, he would have loved this truck!

As I always say, that’s why they make chocolate and vanilla ice crea, everyone to their own 😊 I normally buy white or light colored vehiclew because of the heat reflection in FL. I still have my white ‘02 F250 and it always looks dirty with pollen or something ☹

I ended up with my 22 CarbGray because someone couldn’t wait and I am amazed at how it hardly shows dirt! Unfortunately most of the work trucks in my area are charcoal gray so my Maverick doesn’t stand out at all☹ I have an A51 on order which was the color I originally wanted. I’m hoping it doesn’t show dirt too much 🤞🏻

Check the box with Ox! CG was high on my list, but boy I'm glad I passed. I drove by a CG Mav on a cloudy day. Looked like a rolling pile of baby shit.

The OP may be a bit more established than myself. I've got a Mav...and a bicycle as my 2nd car...
If your baby's crap looks like the color of CG, I would recommend a change of what you are feeding him/her or else an eye appointment for yourself??? Something ain't right!!! 🤔 ;)

I'm not a fan of white, too hard to keep clean. I would have preferred the alto blue.

I like the white one much better!
What wheels are on the white one? I think those might look good on my silver.

Me Too!

Ford Maverick Color switch on the Maverick. Your opinion counts WhiteFords_20221007


My lane is "paved" with clam shells, so even my driveway is white. White is cooler in the summer and doesn't show dirt as much, in my opinion.
